Obituary
Don Anthony passed away on October 5, 2020. He was born on December 2, 1923 in Omaha, Nebraska.
Don was one of the very few left that served in World War II. He was married to his wife, Martha. Don will always be remembered for his strong will, being a business man and always lending a helping hand. He lived life to work (his way) and to worship at First Baptist Church.
He is preceded in death by his parents, siblings and the mother of his two children Nelda Anthony. Left to mourn and recall his great memories are his wife Martha, son Edward (Lydia) Anthony, daughter Donna (Jim) Wofford, sister Marion Brown and several grand and great-grandchildren who loved their PAW.
Don never wanted a big deal made about him but he really was a big deal to us.
A Memorial Service will be held at 10:00 a.m. on Monday, October 12, 2020 at Seaside Funeral Home Chapel. Inurnment will follow at Seaside Memorial Park. To view a livestream of the service please visit Don’s tribute page at: www.seasidefuneral.com
